Lin Mu and the group were met with the adviser Liu and quickly brought to the main hall.

"Forgive me Adviser Liu, but we cannot stay here for the time being and it's best if we go on to our mission at once." Lin Mu spoke.

"Of course, senior Lin Mu. That is not the reason why I brought you here, there is something else." Adviser Liu replied.

"Oh? What is it?" Lin Mu asked curiously.

In response to this, Adviser Liu went to the side where something was kept under a sheet. He lifted the sheet and revealed a closed box underneath it.

~Crack~

He pulled on the lid and the nails were pulled out along with it, before he placed it at the side.

"This was found by our guards at the border of the kingdom. We don't really know what this is and it is certainly suspicious. I wonder if you know what it is?" Adviser Liu said as he pointed to the contents of the box.

"This… can it really be that…" Lin Mu said in disbelief.

~thud~

He tilted the box and let the object fall out of it, which was then revealed to be a beast's carcass.

"Heavens… what kind of a beast is this?" Elder Boqin couldn't help but exclaim at the grotesque appearance.

The beast looked like a monkey beast, but it seemed to have horribly mutated. It had black slimy skin and bone spurs protruding out from everywhere, and teeth that grew haphazardly out of its mouth.

Its nails had grown to unnatural length and were nearly a meter long. Its tail had changed too and no longer covered with flesh and skin. Instead, there were bones fully revealed and had some small patches of flesh on the joints of it.

A frown appeared on Lin Mu's face as he saw the beast and he had a bad feeling.

~SHUA~

Suddenly, a character appeared on his forehead and shone brightly.

"What's happening, Lin Mu?" Jing Luo asked in a concerned tone.

"Invader…" Lin Mu said in a low voice.

"INVADER?" Elder Wenyan exclaimed.

Jing Luo finally understood what Lin Mu was talking about and looked at the beast closely.
